Larry Bird issued a statement regarding the arrest of Jordan Hill on Friday for allegedly driving 107 MPH on the highway.

"We have been informed Jordan was arrested for allegedly reckless driving in Atlanta, Georgia," Bird said. "It is obvious we don't condone this. We will address this with Jordan. This is a major concern of safety, not just for Jordan, but for others." It's unclear at this point if Hill will be in any trouble with the league for the incident, but we will update this story once more details are known. Aug 1 - 11:05 AM

He was allegedly driving 107 MPH on the highway and was pulled over. The Pacers made a statement and said they will address the situation with Hill. Assuming this is only a speeding violation, Hill likely won't face a suspension to start the year. He is the favorite to start at center. Jul 31 - 4:44 PM

Jordan Hill took a bit of a shot at Kobe Bryant when asked what it was like to be a Laker.

Speaking with reporters in Indiana, Hill was asked what it was like to be a Laker and had a very succinct answer. "All you hear is Kobe’s mouth," the new Pacer said. While this will make for an interest sub-plot when the Pacers play the Lakers, Hill will be an interesting late-round target in fantasy drafts as he should see plenty of minutes if he's able to secure a starting role for Indiana.

Jordan Hill officially signed his one-year, $5 million deal with the Pacers on Tuesday.

Hill could be the starting power forward for the Pacers, and then slide over to the center spot when Paul George moves to the power forward position. Larry Bird has said that George will spend a lot of time at power forward, and that Myles Turner will be playing a lot of minutes, so it sounds like Hill will see close to last season's averages of 26.8 minutes per game. Hill was in an ideal situation with the tanking Lakers last season, and still only managed to chip in late-round value, so he's not a very exciting guy to target on draft day. Jul 14 - 6:56 PM

According to Jerry Colangelo, Paul George (calf) will be participating in Team USA's minicamp this August.

"It will be great to see him in a USA uniform," Colangelo said of George. "With as little as we are going to do, it’s going to be a great way to come back. It’s not a competitive camp. Really, it’s a show and a sign that you’re interested in USA Basketball and wanting to continue to represent your country in 2016." George suffered a brutal leg injury playing for Team USA last summer, but it will be great for his confidence if he participates in the camp. It should be noted that the camp is going to very light, but it's still a good sign that George is making good progress.
